Thanks Girlfriend...and STOP IT! I did NOT pay her to give it to me! Peeps...Paaaalease! I was broke and couldnt afford to pay her... JK! I thought it would be a Great way to kick off this Whassup Wednesday!!! Seeing that I have to tell yall Whassup with me...its perfect!

The rules are to:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award
2. Answer 10 questions
3. Pass it along to 7 blogs you've recently discovered and enjoy
4. Leave your recipients a note, telling them about the award

Here are the ten questions:
1. Why did you create this blog?

To Be honest...Watched a Movie ...Yeah! You all know it...The "Julie & Julia Project"...Got me interested in "What is this BLOGGING they speak of???" So I whipped oped my laptop and Entered into "Blogland"...After ROAMIN around in "Blogland" I thought...I can do this! How FUN! And...I felt it would be a way for me to Share the things im passionate about....MOST IMPORTANTLY, God! However...New Years rolled around and I realized I was not putting enough of the Lord into my Posts, and I have a new "Goal" for the New Year...Put MORE of God into my blog...He IS the reason we are all able to do the things we do, use the Talents he gave us (to share with others here in Blogland) BUT it REALLY should be to HIS GLORY! SO...you will be seeing more of "The Big GUY" in my posts! I TRULY HOPE it is NOT offensive to anyone and that I DONT lose readers...BUT...if I do...God will send me TONS MORE! WHEW! And that was just question #1........YIKERS!

2. What kind of blogs do you follow?

Blogs that make me laugh, think and inspire....AND...The Blogs that I have made DEAR FRIENDS with the gals behind the "Blog"! I have made so many new GURLFRIENDS! ANOTHER Blessing from GOD!

3. Favorite Make-Up Brand?

Uuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh......WALGREENS! Sorry to DISSAPOINT! Its da TWOOF! I dont like to spend much $$$ on makeup! I dont really wear much, plus mine usually gets BROKEN and CRUMBLED and falls out anyway! And if was a $15.00 Mac Eyeshadow...I would Poo my Pants! {not REALLY POO} but you get what im sayin! If its a $6.00 Max Factor...I CRINGE less!

4. Favorite Clothing Brand?

I am NOT a big Clothing Shopper!!! Id RATHER spend the $$$ on my Home! SO SAD! Im VERY INTO Target ANYTHING...Even clothes...so there you go :0)

Aaww! Come on! SERIOUSLY???? Im an Interior Designer for Cryin Out Loud! I HAVE to appreciate ALL colors...{REWIND} ALMOST ALL colors! I would say Earth tones for the Home...but if its a piece of Clothing going onto my body...Im gonna go with BLACK! More SLIMMING! :0)

Hey Kara Girl....Whassssuuup? Thanks for hosting this fun Par-tay!! Congrats on your award, you ***SOOOOOO**** deserve it! =) Thank you for passing the award on to me, you are too kind! =) I loved learning more about you and your answers made me smile.

You know, those birds are still hanging out watching me. I told Dean the other night that I thought birds flew south for the winter. He just looked at me & then I realized. DUH, we're in Louisiana. Perhaps that's the problem....

Congrats on the award. I got a huge kick out of your answers to the 10 questions. You and I could do our makeup together and shop at the same place. we would definitely have fun. I'm not a frou-frou person either. Congrats on the party, I will try to put something together for next week. Hugs, Marty

Hey girlie! Thanks so much for passing on the lovin' to me! :-) You are ca-ra-zy funny and I so wish we could all just hang out at your gorgeous home swapping stories and just sharing life together. But, this fab party will have to suffice for now! :-)Vanessa

Yeah, kid...I knew you would get an award soon...You are fun and fun-ky...my kinda gal..and I love that you make me smile every time I pop in here. It is hard to pick and choose what to talk about and who to pick, isn't it?

Congrats on the blog award and I am so going to get my act together and jump on the party thing next week. Winter is hard to come up with cool posts for me that someone would actually jump up and down about, but I will try.Hugs- Tete
